About Us
Home » About Us
Emirates Electrical Engineering is a member of Al Rostamani Group, founded by Abdulla Hassan Al Rostamani in the early 1950s. We have been supporting the UAE’s infrastructure and energy transformation for nearly five decades.
Tracing our roots to 1977, we built our foundation through power transmission and distribution projects that supported the UAE’s infrastructure development. Over the decades, we contributed to the delivery of more than 53 turnkey 132/11 kV substations across the UAE, together with complex brownfield upgrades and commissioning activities that supported grid stability during growth and modernization.
Our history also includes extensive underground cable infrastructure, spanning the design, installation, testing, and commissioning of cable systems up to 400 kV. More than 5,400 km of 132 kV cable networks form part of this track record, integrating pilot, telephone, and fiber-optic links that support protection, control, and communications across the network.
Today, we build on this foundation as an integrated engineering and energy solutions provider, delivering solar energy systems, energy efficiency solutions, MEP services, and system integration capabilities across infrastructure, commercial, industrial, and government projects.
As we continue to evolve in line with the nation’s sustainability ambitions, we help businesses, industries, and communities reduce emissions, enhance operational efficiency, and transition confidently toward a low-carbon future.
Our team combines deep engineering expertise with a forward-looking commitment to innovation, ensuring every project delivers measurable value and long-term resilience.
